Birkenstocks in Italy??
Hello! We are taking our first trip to Italy leaving tomorrow (Yeah)! My 15 year old daughter has been convinced by her friends that you can buy Birkenstocks in Italy for dirt cheap. Is there any truth to this or is this another teenage urban legend? Thanks.

Don't know about Italy, but I saw them in Germany earlier this month for $30 to $40. What a bargain.

I have never bought Briks in Italy but I have bought Mephisto's. the same show that sold for $300.00 over hear was only $110. I paid $90 for sandals that sell for $175 here. Just be careful on sizes as your feet may be swollen if you are walking more than normal.

I do not know how much do Birkenstoks cost in the Us, but last year I ought myself a pair of sandals for 55 euro, while the most usual "Arizona" model costs approx 45-50 euro.

They probably cost a bit less but they are not dirt cheap. I think I paid around $50 in 2000.
